"Animal Amour" A gallery featuring some of the elaborate courtship rituals engaged in by animals. No glittery hearts and cringeworthy verses of devotion here! Male Green Anoles (small, agile lizards) possess a throat fan, known as a dewlap, which they use during territorial disputes and for courtship. When courting, a male will bob his head vigorously and may even perform an action that resembles push-ups. In response, a receptive female will bob her head in synchrony with the male. Definitely beats sprouting a beard... This is one example - visit the gallery for more. (The pink I chose for the background of this post is vile. I will probably have to change it...)

Mouse Relative to other animals, mouse courtship is fairly involved. (Or perhaps, as one of the most-studied mammals ever, we simply have a more thorough understanding of it.) Either way, it includes everything from pheromones that allow females to detect whether or not genes governing males' immune systems are compatible with their own, to ultrasonic singing by male mice. - Rulers of The World? ;)

- Very nice...I remember having a number of Green Anoles as a kid (they were marketed as "chameleons" in mall pet stores) and they were pretty cool stuff. One escape, and we never found it. EVER.

- Humpback Whale During breeding season, which takes place over the winter months, groups of male humpback whales will display for potential mates by singing their famously haunting songs, breaching, and performing a host of other competitive displays that depend on speed, strength and size.

Take a look at this beautiful gallery to see the wonderful courtship rituals in the animal kingdom
Green Anole
Green Anoles live in warm climates throughout the New World. Aside from their chameleon-like ability to change colors, the males of these small, agile lizards also possess a throat fan--known as a dewlap--which they use during territorial disputes and for courtship.
When courting, a male will bob his head vigorously and may even perform an action that resembles push-ups. In response, a receptive female will bob her head in synchrony with the male.
